For example, onceany device inside the package structure is damaged, the whole packagestructure should be changed. Furthermore, during the operation of thechoke coil 15, electric and magnetic are generated which can interferewith the operation of the control device 11. This phenomenon is termedelectromagnetic interference (EMI).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Some embodiments of the invention will now be described in greaterdetail. Nevertheless, it should be noted that the present invention canbe practiced in a wide range of other embodiments besides thoseexplicitly described, and the scope of the present invention isexpressly not limited except as specified in the accompanying claims.

As shown in FIG. 2, according to an embodiment of the present invention,a three-dimensional package structure 2 includes a semiconductor packagebody 21, an energy storage element 23 and a shielding layer 25. Thesemiconductor package body 21 has a first surface 213, a second surface211 opposite the first surface 213, and a sidewall 215 interconnectingthe first surface 213 and the second surface 211. The semiconductorpackage body 21 has a plurality of first conductive elements 216 on thesecond surface 211 or the sidewall 215 to be electrically connected toan outside device (not shown), such as a mother board. The firstconductive elements 216 can be, including but not limited to, leads,pads or solder balls. The semiconductor package body 21 further has aplurality of second conductive elements 217 to be electrically connectedto the energy storage element 23. The second conductive elements 217 canbe disposed on, but not limited to, the first surface 213. Thesemiconductor package body 21 can be such as, but not limited to, apackage body of QFN (Quad Flat No-lead) package, QFP (Quad FlatPackage), SSO (Shrink Small Outline) package, BGA (Ball Grid Array)package, and LGA (Land Grid Array) package. The semiconductor packagebody 21 further includes at least one control device 212 inside, such asa control chip (IC) or a driving chip (IC).

The energy storage element 23 is stacked on the first surface 213 of thesemiconductor package body 21. The energy storage element 23 iselectrically connected to the second conductive elements 217. In thisembodiment, the energy storage element 23 can be such as an inductorhaving a coil (not shown), a magnetic body 232, and a pair of electrodes231 electrically connected to the second conductive elements 217.Furthermore, the electrodes 231 can be formed directly by two ends ofthe coil or two leads connected to the two ends of the coil.

The shielding layer 25 is disposed between the control device 212 and atleast part of the magnetic body 232 to inhibit or reduce EMI from themagnetic body 232 on the control device 212. In this embodiment, theshielding layer 25 is disposed between the first surface 213 of thesemiconductor package body 21 and the energy storage element 23. Theshielding layer 25 can be a metal shielding layer such as a metal foil.The material of the shielding layer 25 can be one of copper, iron,nickel, aluminum. The shielding layer 25 can be fixed between the firstsurface 213 of the semiconductor package body 21 and the energy storageelement 23 by high heat-dissipating adhesive such as epoxy, silicon,silver adhesive, or conductive adhesive. Alternatively, a silveradhesive is directly coated between first surface 213 of thesemiconductor package body 21 and the energy storage element 23 to formthe shielding layer 25.

The following experiments are made on the package structure as is shownin FIG. 2. Suppose that the operation frequency of the control device212 is 200 kHz. When the shielding layer 25 is a copper foil, theoperation frequency of the control device 212 oscillates around 200 to300 kHz. When the shielding layer 25 is an aluminum foil, the operationfrequency of the control device 212 oscillates around 200 to 400 kHz.When there is no shielding layer 25 between the semiconductor packagebody 21 and the energy storage element 23, the operation frequency ofthe control device 212 oscillates around 200 to 600 kHz. According tothe above-mentioned experiments, during the operation of the controldevice 212, the magnetic body 231 will interfere the operation of thecontrol device 212 to make the operation frequency of the control device212 oscillate. By the disposition of the shielding layer 25, theoscillation range of the operation frequency of the control device 212will be reduced.

Furthermore, when the shielding layer 25 is a metal foil, there are twodisposition methods. First, during the molding process of thesemiconductor package body 21 and the energy storage element 23, theshielding layer 25 is disposed inside the semiconductor package body 21or the energy storage element 23 to make the shielding layer 25encapsulated inside the semiconductor package body 21 (as shown in FIG.3B) or inside the energy storage element 23 (as shown in FIG. 3C).Speaking in detail, as shown in FIG. 3B, if the shielding layer 25 isdisposed inside the semiconductor package body 21, when thesemiconductor package body 21 is electrically connected to the energystorage element 23, the shielding layer 25 can inhibit or reduce the EMIfrom the energy storage element 23 on the semiconductor package body 21,especially on the control device 212 inside the semiconductor packagebody 21. As shown in FIG. 3C, the shielding layer 25 is disposed insidethe energy storage element 23, when the energy storage element 23 iselectrically connected to the semiconductor package body 21, theshielding layer 25 can inhibit or reduce EMI from the energy storageelement 23 on the semiconductor package body 21, especially on thecontrol device 212 inside the semiconductor package body 21.

Secondly, the shielding layer 25 can be a part of lead frame 218 of thesemiconductor package body 21 or a part of lead frame of the energystorage element 23. As shown in FIG. 3D, during the design of the leadframe 218, a part of the lead frame 218 is in advance kept as theshielding layer 25. During the molding process, the part of the leadframe 218 is bended to between the control device 212 and at least partof the magnetic body 232, and then molding process is performed.Alternatively, a part of the lead frame (i.e., electrodes 231) of theenergy storage element 23 is bended to between the semiconductor packagebody 21 and the energy storage element 23 to become a shielding layer25, and then fixed by a high heat-dissipating adhesive on thesemiconductor package body 21 or the energy storage element 23.

The method for forming the second conductive elements 217 and the methodof the second conductive elements electrically connected to the energystorage element 23 will be described in detail as follows. As shown inFIG. 3A, the first conductive elements 216 are formed by the lead frame218 of the semiconductor package body 21 (as shown in FIG. 2). At thesame time, the leads 218 a remained in advance extend outside thesemiconductor package body 21. After the molding process on thesemiconductor package body 21 is completed, the leads 218 a is bendedalong the sidewall of the semiconductor package body 21 to the firstsurface 213 of the semiconductor package body 21 to form the secondconductive elements 217 a. Then, the electrodes 231 (such as leadsframe) of the energy storage element 23 are electrically connected andassembled to the second conductive elements 217 a by surface mountingtechnology. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3B, a plurality ofconductive structures 219 (such as copper pillars) are disposed on thelead frame 218 and extend toward the first surface 213 and are exposedoutside the first surface 213 to form the second conductive elements 217b. Then, the second conductive elements 217 b are electrically connectedto the electrodes 231 (such as lead frame) of the energy storage element23 by surface mounting technology. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 3C, theconductive structures 219 (such as copper pillars) disposed on the leadframe 218 extends toward the first surface 213 and are exposed outsidethe first surface 213 to form the second conductive elements 217c. Then,the second conductive elements 217 are electrically connected to theelectrodes 231 of the energy storage element 23 by soldering method.
